Zero additives just tobacco leaf. 2 per day. Enough to RIP collagen?

Smoking is not only bad for lungs but for your DNA. So yes you age faster and become uglier at an accelerated rate

You can smoke if you do not eat PUFAs and drink green tea
 
All pufa including nuts, or just pufa oils like canola? I eat a lot of peanut butter
all PUFAs
if you exceed more than 4g PUFA a day, you can not even reap the benefits. There is a certain user here who extremly avoids PUFAs and he says it works for him, although I do not think he wants to smoke

Your collagen will be fine if you get enough vitamin C. Smokers need more due to free radical exposure in tobacco smoke

As for the cancer (and maybe also the aging/collagen aspect):
The "Japanese Paradox" is the paradox that the Japanese should have more incidences of lung cancer due to their high consumption of cigarettes and their "lack of essential fatty acids" (PUFAs)

Besides the "Japanese Paradox" there is an 'Israeli Paradox' which states that the Israelis should have lower cardiovascular disease due to high polyunsaturated fatty acid consumption—but they don't. Going along with average cardiovascular disease—which is essentially vitamin C dependent—rates are high cancer and diabetes rates, as you'd expect from a ω−6/ω−3 ratio of 24:1. It's worth noting that the Japanese have one of the lowest ω−6/ω−3 ratios of any country, a fact which is useful for explaining their low cancer rates of certain organs.

Also, despite what's typically said to the contrary, saturated fatty acids are critical components of phospholipids, not merely of triglycerides, as well, and the importance of this is seen no more dramatically than in the lungs.

Normally, phospholipids bear one PUFA molecule and one saturated fatty acid (SFA) molecule, but the lungs are unique in that they incorporate two molecules of palmitic acid. The reason for this is simple: Phospholipids with straight-chain fatty acids pack neatly into small spaces when the lungs deflate and readily spread out when the lungs inflate, acting as “anti-glue” of sorts (or technically, as surfactants). So the replacement of a PUFA molecule for a SFA molecule permits the lungs to inflate properly with only modest increases in air pressure, thereby decreasing the amount of muscular work needed to breathe. The loss or replacement of a SFA molecule for a PUFA molecule would be catastrophic, especially in neonates whose lungs don’t develop fully until just before birth.

This makes me wonder if anti-asthma drugs like Setipripant work with that mechanism. They deplete Prostaglandins (which are basically also PUFAs) and thus clear the lungs.

Smoking decreases the synthesis rates of type I and III collagens in skin in vivo and alters the balance of extracellular matrix turnover in skin.

I eat very healthy, take Vitamin C, Pycnogenol, Spirulina, and Orthosilicic Acid, use skincare products that stimulate collagen synthesis but I still smoke... No more, today I will officially quit.
